It's a meteorite, pretty rare phenomenon to have on tape though. OTOH everyone having a camera nowadays so everyone is recording or shooting everything all the time. By the way you're not saying the russkies are ... capable of shooting down an ufo are you?

OMG, I am listening to the radio right now, and there are reports of a cylindrical meteorite landing in a small community in Russia. Reports say that the militia has been sent in to investigate, but communication was lost moments ago with the unit commander, according to Pravda and Radio Putin. Casualty updates coming shortly.

AP reporter, Carl Phillips made a final report moments ago. He reported the object appears to be "unscrewing" itself, and he caught a glimpse of "a tentacled, pulsating, barely mobile mar..." then his live broadcast was cut off.

Dear GOD, what is happening??

Not sure why they sent up four fighters to shoot it up though..seemed an odd thing to do. It doesn't look anything like the meteorites that hit the UK a few weeks ago though..

According to Radio Putin, which has some recorded audio of reporter Carl Phillips, it was a "barely mobile Martian" inside the meteorite and the crowd of onlookers, fireman and militia were incinerated by "Heat-Rays"! Three Martian Tripods have been spotted headed toward "the river".

That is all I have for the moment, what about anyone else??

Sorry, Wodin, but I'm not buying it. I doubt the Russian Ural air defense is capable of scrambling four combat-ready aircraft to 'shoot down a UFO' in such a rapidly-developing issue. How many fighters does the US or other major military power have on 'ready 5' for UFO duty? How many would we have over Wyoming or Oklahoma in such a configuration? I'm thinking of a round number. A perfectly round number.

Scrambling 4 fighters to shoot something up that's travelling several times the speed of sound? I'm not buying it-I'd like to see the legitimate press release that documents this, please.

Isn't Tom Cruise supposed to give it a head cold or something?

Nah, Cruise actually gives it indigestion by forcing it to watch his Oprah appearance.

No it was said they shot up a meteorite..maybe to break it up abit? God knows..I think it was on Russia Today..

By the way, the 6 ton rock came into the atmosphere at about 54,000km/hour. Anything we know of that can track, let alone engage something moving that fast? No bullets / missiles that I can think of. Lemme guess-the Russkies have an interlacing web of ready rail guns for such intercepts over the Urals?

Nice coverage. Very intelligent cameramen. First, they are on the street immediately underneath some shattering windows. Then they run into the street to seek shelter from the cascading glass. Lastly, they position themselves right underneath some electric wires to an electric tramway. Always a good place to be...

Dear God, the end really is near, because I never thought I would say: "yes, Slaak, you were right".
